Story Transcript:
Et: Aasaluka raba kattis kerge uduloor.
En: Aasaluka bog was covered by a light veil of mist.
Et: Sügis tõi kaasa kargete värvide mängu - puude paljad oksad tõusid taeva poole, samal ajal kui maa kattus jõhvikate ja seente rikka punase ja pruuni varjundiga.
En: Autumn brought with it a play of crisp colors - the bare branches of the trees rose toward the sky, while the ground was covered with the rich red and brown shades of cranberries and fungi.
Et: Kert, nooruslik ja elujanuline, astus aeglaselt läbi märja mätta, tema kummikutest jäid maha jäljed nagu vaiksed sõnad.
En: Kert, youthful and full of life, walked slowly through the wet tussock, leaving tracks from his boots like quiet words.
Et: Ta silmad ekslesid metsaservale, kus jõhvikad sillerdasid salakavalalt.
En: His eyes wandered to the edge of the forest, where cranberries sparkled slyly.
Et: "Vaata ette, Kert!" hüüdis Liisi tema taga, hoolitsedes, et tema korv oleks õigesti paigutatud.
En: "Watch out, Kert!" called Liisi from behind him, making sure her basket was properly placed.
Et: Kõik pidi sujuma nagu plaanitud, ja Liisi ei talunud vigu.
En: Everything had to go as planned, and Liisi could not tolerate mistakes.
Et: Kert naeratas ja viipas talle naeruga, kuigi sügaval hinges tundis ta muret.
En: Kert smiled and waved her off with laughter, although deep down, he felt worried.
Et: Raivo istus läheduses vana kändu peal. Ta jälgis noori oma aruka pilguga.
En: Raivo sat nearby on an old stump, watching the young ones with a wise gaze.
Et: Tema jaoks oli oluline, et traditsioonid ei ununeks, et noored austaksid nende esivanemate tarkust ja raba ilu.
En: For him, it was important that traditions were not forgotten, that the young respected their ancestors' wisdom and the beauty of the bog.
Et: "Jõhvikad saame kergesti," ütles Raivo.
En: "We can get the cranberries easily," said Raivo.
Et: "Aga kas sa mäletad, kuidas vanasti neid koguti? Igal helinal oli oma koht."
En: "But do you remember how they were collected in the old days? Every sound had its place."
Et: Kert noogutas, kuid tema mõtted uitasid kaugele.
En: Kert nodded, but his thoughts wandered far.
Et: Kas jääda Aasaluka väikesse külasse või avastada laia maailma, see küsimus vaevas teda üha enam.
En: Whether to stay in the small village of Aasaluka or explore the wide world, this question troubled him more and more.
Et: "Hoidke parem silmad lahti," ütles Liisi, hoiatavalt ringi vaadates.
En: "Better keep your eyes open," said Liisi, looking around warningly.
Et: "See raba on libe."
En: "This bog is slippery."
Et: Kert hakkas korjama, mõtted segased, kuid kogenud liigutused peatasid tema mured.
En: Kert began picking, his thoughts confused, but the experienced movements calmed his worries.
Et: Aga siis ta leidis midagi kummalist - suures varjulises sopis said jõhvikad musta tolmu kaetud, nagu linik reetlik prügila.
En: But then he found something strange - in a large shaded nook, the cranberries were covered in black dust, like a linen cloth from a deceitful landfill.
Et: Ta peatus, täielikult ära võetud vaatepildist.
En: He stopped, completely taken aback by the sight.
Et: Mõttetud küved raputasid rahuotsijana tema usku teadmatult.
En: The meaningless slopes shook his faith unknowingly as a seeker of peace.
Et: "See pole looduslik," mõt
